A Comparison of Supermassive Black Hole Mass of NGC 4151 Using Different Methods
Passer Journal, 2020 We found a new value of supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass in the middle of type 1 Seyfert, NGC 4151 galaxy. In this Study, the image of NGC 4151 galaxy was deprojected to face-on, using spiral galaxy of face-on, and applied IRAF to calculate the ...

Dynamical regularities in rotating galaxies [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2019 AbstractGalaxies are observed to obey a strict set of dynamical scaling relations. We review these relations for rotationally supported disk galaxies spanning many decades in mass, surface brightness, and gas content. The behavior of these widely varied systems can be summarized with a handful of empirical laws connected by a common acceleration scale.

The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We report VLA B-configuration observations of the H i 21 cm line on the close disk galaxy pair NGC 5595 and NGC 5597. At the angular resolution of the observations, ∼7.″1 × 4.″2, while most of the H i 21 cm in NGC 5595 and NGC 5597 has the same extent as

Dynamical Friction on Satellite Galaxies [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2006 Abstract For a rigid model satellite, Chandrasekhar’s dynamical friction formula describes the orbital evolution quite accurately, when the Coulomb logarithm is chosen appropriately. However, it is not known if the orbital evolution of a real satellite with the internal degree of freedom can be described by the dynamical friction formula.

The Stability of Some Galaxy Disks is Still Perplexing
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The problem of how some disk galaxies avoid forming bars remains unsolved. Many galaxy models having reasonable properties continue to manifest vigorous instabilities that rapidly form strong bars and no widely accepted idea has yet been advanced to ...

Kinematical Fluctuations Vary with Galaxy Surface Mass Density
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 The Galaxy inner parts are generally considered to be optically symmetric, as well as kinematically symmetric for most massive early-type galaxies. At the lower-mass end, many galaxies contain lots of small patches in their velocity maps, causing their ...

Chemo-dynamical Evolution of Galaxies
, 2023 Stars are fossils that retain the history of their host galaxies. Elements heavier than helium are created inside stars and are ejected when they die. From the spatial distribution of elements in galaxies, it is therefore possible to constrain the physical processes during galaxy formation and evolution.

Dynamical stability and galaxy evolution in LSB disk galaxies [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 1997 We demonstrate that, due to their low surface mass density and large dark matter content, LSB disks are quite stable against the growth of global bar modes. However, they may be only marginally stable against local disk instabilities. We simulate a collision between an LSB and HSB galaxy and find that, while the HSB galaxy forms a strong bar, the ...
